How to Find An Emergency Locksmith in Chicago

Quality locks ensure the safety of our homes, businesses, and vehicles. But when you accidentally lose your keys, you might need the services of an emergency locksmith in Chicago.

Questions for a Reputable Locksmith?

There are a few things to consider before contacting an emergency locksmith in Chicago which are:

  • Are they Local?
  • Are they Licensed?
  • Are they Insured?
  • Do they have a good reputation?
  • Can they give you a solid quote over the phone?
  • Do they have any additional affiliations for insurance purposes?

Check Locksmith Credentials

There are a number of fake locksmiths operating in the Chicagoland area and a number of them do not have local addresses, therefore, when searching the internet or when you call, ensure that they have an address.

Additionally, most reputable locksmiths are licensed, so when you call or view their website, look for their License Number and the seal from the Associated Locksmiths of America (ALOA) – the organization who licenses locksmiths.

Check References & Reviews

Ask friends or family if they know of a reputable locksmith, or for any locksmith that you’ve found on your own, check out their reviews on Facebook, Google, or Yelp.  These are great resources that will give you an indication of their work ethic, service, and style.

Get a Quote for Service

Many fake locksmiths will give you an “estimate” for services rather than a real quote. They tell you that they won’t know the full price until they’ve inspected the house, vehicle or lock. This is simply not true. A licensed locksmith can give you an actual quote over the phone for the full scope of service – provided you’ve told them everything they need to know.
